OpenAI Faces a Dilemma! Torn Over Whether to Add Watermarks to ChatGPT Texts
There has been an internal discussion at OpenAI regarding the introduction of watermark technology to tag text generated by ChatGPT and prevent student plagiarism. The watermark technology generates detectable patterns by adjusting the words and phrases predicted by the model, aimed at assisting teachers in detecting assignment plagiarism without affecting text quality. Although the technology boasts high accuracy and is resistant to simple rewrites, the use of other models to rewrite could bypass the watermark, raising concerns. Implementing watermarks may cause some users to feel stigmatized, potentially leading to reduced usage.
